MyPlots vs Plots at a glance

Area	MyPlots	Plots
Marketing & attribution	Native email + SMS + tracking links + campaign reporting tied directly to ticket sales.	Communications and tracking links exist. Marketing depth and closed-loop reporting are lighter.
Audience & repeat tools	Retention distribution, audiences, and per-event referrals are core platform features.	Audience features exist at a basic level; deeper repeat tools often require external systems.
Team visibility	Shared real-time dashboard for revenue, attendees, and scans across the team.	Crew access and permissions are a strength. Broader financial and marketing visibility can be more fragmented.

Details can change. Always verify current pricing and capabilities with both providers.
